Lisa The Painful RPG takes place in a world where there are no women. Only men. Given the extreme subject matter its creator, Austin Jorgensen, could have gone the āfunnyā route or the ābleak as hellā route. Heās gone the latter.
Described as a āgame about survival, sacrifice, and pervertsā, itās set in a world where the disappearance of women has, as youād expect, brought out the worst in the men. There are a lot of beards, and a lot of blood.
In order to add to the gravity of it all, Jorgensen wants there to be really heavy decisions available for the player to make, like āGiving up your limbs in exchange for the lives of your party membersā. Cheery.
Another neat feature is that heās making sure every single character in the game, including every NPC, is a unique entity, not simply a reskinned template or cut-n-paste job.
Due on PC, the gameās currently up on Kickstarter. Feel free to back it if you enjoyed Y: The Last Man or like awesome t-shirt rewards.
